This ganache is a bit too sweet for my taste, but it's still very good. I think I'll try using less sugar next time.

This ganache is a great way to use up leftover chocolate. I had some dark chocolate chips that I needed to use up, and this ganache was the perfect solution.

This ganache is a bit too runny for my taste, but it still tastes great. I think I'll try reducing the amount of cream next time.
